and it is really taxing on our workforce. and when i say our workforce, is no it is not just people in the city and non-profits, all of the employees that are disaster workers -- we've had to retrain librarians and rec and park staff and other people who have not hired to do these jobs, to work with this population in these capacities. we are not going to be able to place our entire homeless population into hotel rooms. but what we're trying to do is get creative around how we're able to provide them help and to find safe locations where we can divert the tents off of the sidewalks, off of the streets into larger areas and larger parking lots. specifically we're looking at everett middle school as an option, and we're working with supervisor mandelman on that. and we're looking at other locations in the bay view. we have trailers that we received from the state and that we also purchased, that we plan to place at pier 92, to move people out of tents and into the shelters, people who are residents of the bay view. we're trying

a profound and outsized influence on our capacity to deliver on this next iteration in terms of our planning. let me thank those directors for helping us guide our decision tree, the one we just made public today. let me also extend just ongoing appreciation for the governors of washington state and oregon for their guidance and support and collaboration through this process and also other western state governors that are also likely to join on this broader regional protocol to go together so that we get this right. this isngel said, incredibly important, there's no light switch here. i would argue it's more like a dimmer and that dimmer is about what i was talking about. this toggling back and forth between more restrictive and less restrictive measures. more individual accountability, more individual responsibility as it relates to face coverings as, it relates to practice seeing physical distancing. more individual responsibility. if you have been exposed to the virus, that we isolate you, and that we trace those that also may have been exposed, quarantine those that have tested positive.

the reality on our streets, shared about the reality on our street, it's time for us to really debunk the excuse for why homeless individuals are incapable of self-care. the vast majority of our homeless population living on our streets that we encounter all the time, are over the age of 60 and or have multiple underlying health conditions. there are currently not being admitted no shelters which we know and while we have made incremental progress moving some individuals who have tested positive out of shelters and into quarantine, we are leaving thousands of individuals exposed to viral transmission. today, a group of doctors released a report entitled a medically plan to stop the spread of covid-19 among unhoused people which a firms the widespread public-health opinion that created more mass shelters does not provide suffice laying fo for sro and qe opposite is true. it endangerers everyone's health and well being and threatens to overwhelm our hospital systems that we are working to decongest. as the chief health officer told us last month i quote, from a disease transmission pers

here's one from our viewer who posted on instagram. they said there's a dog park in walking distance from where i live. can i still take my dog there by foot? >> so there's a yes-and-no answer to that. ultimately, no, dogparks are now closed. yes, you can take your dog for a walk but dog parks are closed. the reason for that is we really wanted to be mindful of areas that naturally tend to encourage congregations. while individuals certainly can argue they could be mindful of the six-foot distancing rule, dog parks are areas that tend to encourage congregation, much like the issue we saw a couple of weeks ago with congregating at the beach. as a dog owner, i recognize the challenge in that that somet there's nothing better to take your dog to a dog park and run and socialize with neighbors. but for now the best exercise for you and your dog is a leashed walk in your neighborhood. >> nicole molten wants to know why are there car dealerships still open in san rafael? is that still considered essential? >> great question. so there is a ca

an update on our crime statistics for the week. during the fifth week of the shelter-in-place order which was from april 13 to april 19, we saw an increase in violent crimes, which was led by 11 additional robberies over the previous week and two additional assaults. we saw 31% decrease in part 1 property crime, which was 154 fewer property crimes from the previous week. there was a 25% decrease in part 1 crimes. that means there were 142 fewer crimes than the previous week. this is compared to the week of april 6 through april 12, which was the fourth week of the shelter-in-place order. again, we've had burglaries and vandalism of businesses. we continue to step up our patrols in that area to make sure our businesses are protected as much as we can protect them while they are closed. we have had some arrests in those cases. again, i would like to thank our partnership with the district attorney and his office. they have been able to add looting charges to 19 of these instances of burglary. we thank them for their partnership there

our capacity to deliver on this next it ration in terms of our planning. let me thank those county health directors for helping us guide our decision tree. the one that we just made public today. let me also extend on going appreciation for the governors of washington state and oregon for their guidance and support and collaboration through this process. and also western state governors that are likely to join on this broader regional protocol to go together so that we get this right. but as dr. angel said, this is incredibly important. there is no light switch here. i would argue it's like a dimmer. and that dimmer is what i was talking about. the toggling back and forth between more restrictive and less restrictive measures. more individual accountability. more individual responsibility as it relates to face covering. as it relates to practicing physical distancing. more individual responsibility if you've been exposed to the virus that we isolate you. and that we trace those that also may have been exposed. quarantine those that have tested positive. mo

we are grateful that no lives were lost in our state on sunday. our thoughts and prayers continue to be with our neighbors to the east and the west. they have certainly had a lot more of the deaths than we have, and property damage as well. i'm offering to governors reeves, kemp, and edwards, our condolences in this time of loss in their states, and we will offer to provide any resources they would find useful. that is what neighbors do. neighbors help neighbors. turning our attention back to the covid-19 pandemic, i want to give you a more in-depth update on the progress we are making with our current stay-at-home order, which runs through april 30. while i am personally grateful that so many people appear to be staying at home and taking the order to heart, all indicators suggest it is working. i cannot overemphasize enough the importance -- in fact, it is imperative that we keep doing what we are doing. now is not the time to let our guard down and pretend that things are back to normal. while some of the modeling suggests our efforts have been

kemp: one thing i would add there, too, on our call today with the president and vice president and dr. birx was going over some testing things that they gave us. they had one graph, too, that showed the volume of the private sector testing that's going on in the private labs so there's a lot of capacity there. there was a point made, i think it was two of those calls ago where, because the states were doing more, it was opening up more and more capacity at the private labs. they were speeding up. if you remember, you know, weeks ago, it was taking five to eight days to get those tests back and i think that is speeding up, and then they have a lot of availability in the private labs, too, which is a good thing. reporter: question for dr. toomey. as far as contact tracing goes, has the state done anything like this before? and how involved will the state be? what resources will the state put towards contact tracing? dr. toomey: we've been doing contact tracing for years, for many infectious diseases and have been -- have done it for coronavirus, covid-19, as well early in the epidemic.
